AbstractMetastases of ovarian carcinoma to the breast are uncommon. The incidence of ovarian metastasis to the breast ranges from 0.5% to 1.2%. Nevertheless, its detection and distinction from other primaries, especially primary breast carcinoma, is important as treatment and prognosis differ significantly. We report the case of a 38-year-old Tunisian woman with bilateral metastases to breast from ovarian carcinoma. Through a review of literature, we discuss the clinical, radiological and histological characteristics of ovarian metastases to the breast.© 2020 The Author(s).
